Servo is a modern, high-performance browser engine designed for both application and embedded use. The current version of Servo has a couple of issues. The first issue is the absence of the capability to parse the srcdoc attribute in an iframe tag in the HTML code. The second issue is that Servo does not have a named getter implemented in HTMLFormElement to reference the form elements by their id. The goal of this project is to implement these two functionalities in the current version of Servo.

Introduction

Servo

Servo is an experimental browser engine that seeks to create a highly parallel environment, in which components such as rendering, layout, HTML parsing, image decoding, etc. are handled by fine-grained, isolated tasks. It leverages the memory safety properties and concurrency features of the Rust programming language.
